lyrics

I'm staying up too late and it's starting to become not enough.
It's always humid in this state, that's why my windows fog up.

Pick my thoughts so carefully before I hit the water below me.

And even though there's so much we need to hide,
It's not like anyone is coming to check outside.
It's far too late for them to be awake and I'm holding my breath hoping I stay the same.

It's getting harder to see straight as my eyes almost close,
But you're the one who knows I'm most content in these clothes.

I like the cold air tonight.
My words escape my mind before I run out of time.

I picked the path that won't send me back to where I've already been.
Get your facts straight, it's already too late to be that way again.

Pick my thoughts so carefully before I hit the water below me.
Everything goes up in smoke,
Feels like I'm letting go of this rope.

I like the cold air tonight.
My words escape my mind before I run out of time.

I picked the path that won't send me back to where I've already been.
Get your facts straight, it's already too late to be that way again.
